This diff modifies all the github actions that produce assets to
publish on a release called rolling when we are not building a tag.
If everything goes as planned, we should be able to provide
people with automatically generated fresh binaries for testing.
While there, introduce caching for all builds to make them
as fast as possible. I suspect gomobile based builds will not
see any speed up but other builds most likely will.
See https://github.com/ooni/probe/issues/2249
This diff introduces a build script, makefile rules, and github actions
rules to build and public android CLI releases.
See https://github.com/ooni/probe/issues/1723
Rather than hardcoding the NDK version inside a script, encode it
as a file in the filesystem, which is easier to share.
Make sure we use the desired NDK by setting environment variables.
Use `-androidabi 21`, which:
1. is what rclone did: 8390ba4ca9
2. is the minimum ABI used by probe-android: 994651be52/app/build.gradle (L10)

While there, introduce a rule by which, if the branch is named `fullbuild` we run all possible builds. It helps to test all the builds without creating a release branch. Because release branches are protected, they cannot be deleted easily. On the contrary, the `fullbuild` branch can easily be disposed of.
While there, document what we need to document without mentioning too
many details about release builds, for which we have the Makefile.
See https://github.com/ooni/probe/issues/2218.
I am not 100% sure I was able to fix all the cases in which we
need higher permissions than the strict default.
At least, I tried.
It may be reasonable to make an interim release to check whether I
successfully fixed all the cases.

Here's the squash of the following patches that enable support
for go1.18 and update our dependencies.
This diff WILL need to be backported to the release/3.14 branch.
* chore: use go1.17.8
See https://github.com/ooni/probe/issues/2067
* chore: upgrade to probe-assets@v0.8.0
See https://github.com/ooni/probe/issues/2067.
* chore: update dependencies and enable go1.18
As mentioned in 7a0d17ea91,
the tree won't build with `go1.18` unless we say it does.
So, not only here we need to update dependencies but also we
need to explicitly say `go1.18` in the `go.mod`.
This work is part of https://github.com/ooni/probe/issues/2067.
* chore(coverage.yml): run with go1.18
This change will give us a bare minimum confidence that we're
going to build our tree using version 1.18 of golang.
See https://github.com/ooni/probe/issues/2067.
* chore: update user agent used for measuring
See https://github.com/ooni/probe/issues/2067
* chore: run `go generate ./...`
See https://github.com/ooni/probe/issues/2067
* fix(dialer_test.go): make test work with go1.17 and go1.18
1. the original test wanted the dial to fail, so ensure we're not
passing any domain name to exercise dialing not resolving;
2. match the end of the error rather than the whole error string.
Tested locally with both go1.17 and go1.18.
See https://github.com/ooni/probe-cli/pull/708#issuecomment-1096447186
We're starting to prepare a new release. The first step is to use
go1.17.6 in the following places:
1. everywhere we define the version of Go in this tree;
2. when we're building for Android (using ooni/go);
3. in our ooni/oohttp fork of Go net/http standard library.

Original commit message:

This pull request changes `mk` and github workflows to build and publish binaries on tag. We also update the documentation to explain this new branching model. Basically, we have release branches where we produce binary packages and we add extra code, on tag, to publish such packages inside a release.
We discussed removing most secrets from builds in this repository and having a different tool/repository that takes in input also secrets for doing follow-up actions after publishing. As a consequence, this pull request also removes all pieces of code that require secrets. The next step is to reinstate this code in this new repository/tool.
The existing code in `mk` also implemented caching. This feature was useful when doing local builds because it reduced the time required to obtain binary releases. With builds running as part of GitHub actions, we don't need caching because we spawn parallel machines to build binaries. Therefore, let us also remove caching, which makes the code simpler. (Caching in itself is hard and in https://github.com/ooni/probe/issues/1875 I noted that, for example, caching of the `ooni/go` repository was leading to some unwanted behaviour when changing the branch. Without caching, this behaviour is gone and we always generally use fresh information to produce builds.) Of course, this means that local builds are now slower, but I do not think this is a problem _because_ we want to use GitHub actions for building in the common case.
Reference issues: https://github.com/ooni/probe/issues/1879 and https://github.com/ooni/probe/issues/1875.
The final aspect to mention to conclude this description is an implementation one:
```
gh release create -p $tag --target $GITHUB_SHA || true
```
The code above uses `|| true` because there could already be a release. So, basically, it means that, if a release does not already exist, then we're going to create one. Otherwise, it does not matter because there's already a release.

This change allows for producing cloud builds using the psiphon
config files. We will add those files as build secrets. Only people
in the organization and collaborators with at least "write"
access could trigger builds containing such secrets.
Before this change, `./mk` unconditionally attempted to clone
github.com/ooni/probe-private. Now, it only checks whether
we need to clone _if_ files are not already there.
This allows us to use GitHub actions and secrets to copy the
files in there _without_ needing to clone a private repo.
Cloning a private repo would require us to include as repository
secret an access token with full `repo` scope, which is a very
broad scope. Instead, by using secrets to include psiphon config,
we are narrowing down the secrets required to make a release build.

Closes https://github.com/ooni/probe/issues/1861
This pull request fixes https://github.com/ooni/probe/issues/1471. We have replaced the original build script (`./make`) with the `./mk` makefile (executable using `#!/usr/bin/make -f`). We concluded supporting direct builds from Windows is not worth the effort and halving the code we need to maintain is probably a good plus. Both macOS and Linux install GNU make at `/usr/bin/make`, so we should be okay in the common use cases.
I significantly simplified the management of Go versioning by requiring the user to manage it and by enforcing that we are using the desired Go version. This speeds up builds and works in sane operating systems that use the last version of a specific package. Otherwise, it's possible to use the `go get golang.org/dl/go${version}` feature.
The remaining question mark was related to updating the Android SDK. I have determined that a good course of action is pinning to the latest CLI tools and always forcing the CLI tools to install the latest required packages (e.g., the NDK).
1. reduce the number of periodic builds
2. just build as part of the release process in most cases
3. shorttests duplicates coverage
Preliminary changes as part of https://github.com/ooni/probe/issues/1466
Part of https://github.com/ooni/probe/issues/1440.
Basically, let us continue to update our build infrastructure so that we can release v3.10.0-beta.
Now, it's the turn of iOS.
* feat: use go1.16 embedding for resources
We want to embed everything that can be easily embedded. We should, at a
minimum, replace the downloading of resources and bindata.
Ref: https://github.com/ooni/probe/issues/1367.
* fix: get rid of bindata and use go embed instead
* fix: start unbreaking some automatic tests
* fix: fetch resources as part of the mobile build
* fix: convert more stuff to go1.16
I still expect many breakages, but we'll fix them.
* fix: make the windows CI green
* fix: get resources before running QA
* fix: go1.16 uses modules by default
* hopefully fix all other outstanding issues
* fix(QA/telegram.py): add another DC IP address
* Apply suggestions from code review
* refactor: start building an Android package
Part of https://github.com/ooni/probe/issues/1335.
This seems also a good moment to move some packages out of the
engine, e.g., oonimkall. This package, for example, is a consumer
of the engine, so it makes sense it's not _inside_ it.
* fix: committed some stuff I didn't need to commit
* fix: oonimkall needs to be public to build
The side effect is that we will probably need to bump the major
version number every time we change one of these APIs.
(We can also of course choose to violate the basic guidelines of Go
software, but I believe this is bad form.)
I have no problem in bumping the major quite frequently and in
any case this monorepo solution is convinving me more than continuing
to keep a split between engine and cli. The need to embed assets to
make the probe more reliable trumps the negative effects of having to
~frequently bump major because we expose a public API.
* fix: let's not forget about libooniffi
Honestly, I don't know what to do with this library. I added it
to provide a drop in replacement for MK but I have no idea whether
it's used and useful. I would not feel comfortable exposing it,
unlike oonimkall, since we're not using it.
It may be that the right thing to do here is just to delete the
package and reduce the amount of code we're maintaining?
* woops, we're still missing the publish android script
* fix(publish-android.bash): add proper API key
* ouch fix another place where the name changed
